Italy : Rome -- Tuscan harvest -- Milan. |
| Summary |
Rome : Rome is a city of unique and fascinating layers. Burt calls it "the Big Lasagna" and serves up a tantalizing taste of Rome's ancient ruins and restorations, Renaissance relics, magnificent Baroque architecture, and "la dolce vita, " the sweet life as indelibly captured onscreen by film director Federico Fellini. You'll visit landmark sites (the Forum, Colosseum, Pantheon, and Trevi Fountain) and find the best places to shop and dine. |
|
Tuscan Harvest : Artists such as Michelangelo, da Vinci, and Raphael took inspiration from the Tuscany region's magnificent landscapes. Burt finds inspiration in the region's gastronomic traditions. In this delicious episode, he uncorks the fascinating histories of wineries in Siena and Tolaini, samples signature dishes, and concludes his tour at a festive traditional rustic family meal. |
|
Milan : Milan is the financial and commercial center of Italy and the fashion center of the world. And the food isn't bad either. Burt explores this dynamic city's ancient treasures and contemporary attractions, including 16th century palazzo and the grand La Scala opera house (Psst! Need a ticket? Burt tells you how to score a seat to a sold-out performance). Burt also reveals how each of Milan's invaders throughout its tumultuous history influenced its most popular dishes. |
